David Harley - Baby What A Groove

The landlady called today
And asked me what I had to say
She said "What are all these parties night and day
And where's the rent you're due to pay"
I said "I'm sorry I can't talk now
I've got to get some gin
But don't you worry about me
Cos baby what a groove I'm in"

My banker wrote me just to say
I'm way out in the red
But since they stopped my council grant
There's nothing to be said
I hope Dad lays a little bread on me
To keep my funds in equity
Now I've got 25 hippies living off me
But baby what a groove we're in

My tutor told me only yesterday
"Your work's not up to scratch
We don't expect you to work all the time
But you've not done a patch
It's all these parties I can see
No wonder you've no study time free
And I'll have you kicked out if you don't invite me
Cos baby what a groove you're in"

The doctor told me just the other day
"Son, you're getting in much too deep
You see your trouble is, basically
Too much bed and too little sleep
Too many fags and too much booze"
I said "I know it's not the life you'd choose
But I'd rather be dead than have the 9-to-5 blues
Cos baby what a groove I'm in"
